Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews are very popular in Japan. So we'll have more contributions of japanese fans in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter in the future. Thank you so much dear Fumiko. I know how sad you and the other fans are at the moment.

It's great to meet so many Betty MacDonald Fans in South Africa.

Spain, Germany and the Netherlands are very happy but the question is:Do they have a chance against the teams of South America? We'll see it very soon.

Greta, Fifa World Cup is very exciting and we don't have any heart attacks.I can't wait to read your article about Betty MacDonald's No Sports.

We enjoy our stay in South Africa very much. The Betty MacDonald Meeting in Oslo was so very entertaining and interesting.I missed The Royal Wedding and the Betty MacDonald Event in Stockholm because of South Africa. I hope to see the Betty MacDonald Stockholm DVD. I know you had a great time there.

Thank you, Linde and other members doing a great work for Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the world. You deserve a Nobel Price in friendship.

I enjoy Perry Woodfin's Betty MacDonald Poem very much and his artwork is fascinating.Perry Woodfin could be a future Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member.I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Heidi

The Egg and MeCopyright by Perry Woodfin

When her name comes up, as it has on occasion,I reminisce about our only meeting.We had climbed the long flight to the ferry boat cabin.We stop suddenly at the top.A woman is coming down.Dad and Mom talk with her.Dad, proud, introduces me, his boy.Then he tells me, “This is Betty MacDonald.”To me she’s just a another grown up.I seem to remember all of that.I think she had on silk stockings, high heels.There may also have been white gloves, perfume.I wonder if I’ve invented all this ?It’s just a memory, a brief moment in time.As I said, on occasion it has come up.Then I turn it over, move it around,gaining nothing except what is here.Well, maybe a slight scent of sophistication;maybe a touch of class.But have I hatched this too ?Questions remain as questions always seem to do,just laying there.Whenever I catch a ferry and see that high flight,small memories like this, soar.

Hope you enjoy this.I like poetry for its more immediate creative outlet (usually).More immediate than painting, anyway.The poem describes an incident that occurred in I would guess, about 1950.

Many Betty MacDonald Fans like the idea of an international Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Library Day. They support this very interesting Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Fan Club project.I got many mails and I'm very optimistic.

We'll have a Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Library Day Conference during this year.

You can read more information about this and other Wolfgang Hampel and Betty MacDonald Fan Club projects in one of our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletters.

Many greetings to my husband, brother and uncle and the other Betty MacDonald and World Cup Fans in South Africa.

Remember Greta' s story. Be careful and remain healthy, please.

I'm sad for Switzerland, France and Italy but happy for the Netherlands, Germany, England, Spain and Portugal.

I can't wait to hear and listen to Wolfgang Hampel's new Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Interviews.

Good news for Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard fans. I met a relative from Mary Bard's husband, Dr. Clyde Jensen. We can await many contributions in the future.

Congratulations to Germany's young team and Ghana, who is the best african team in Fifa World Cup 2010. Mario, Maria, Umberto and the other italian Betty MacDonald and Fifa World Cup fans are really very sad and we can only say: Better times will come.

I remember Betty MacDonald's statements in The Plague and I, Anybody can do anything and Onions in the Stew. Not to forget the very funny stories and memories in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews with Betty MacDonald's family and friends.

I have no idea what Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle thinks about Sport. Can we find anything about this subject in the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books? I can't remember right now.

Betty MacDonald's very witty sister Alison Bard Burnett was the opposite. I'm going to write a story with the title Betty MacDonald: No sports for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.

I say: No sports. I like to move and prefer to work in my garden. But sports! No way!

Even if you are passive and only watch a game it's very dangerous.Take the 22 year old fan from Portugal who got a very serious heart attack. Portugal won 7 : 0 against North Korea's team. When Portugal shot the last goal the young man got his heart attack. He survived but as you can see it's rather dangerous.To make a long story short, I dislike Sport the same way very wise and intelligent Betty MacDonald did. My husband and three children are fond of sports ( active and passive ) and huge Fifa World Cup Fans. They watch every game and are shouting all the time. It's VERY noisy in our house.

My dear husband said to me it would be a very good idea to send our best greetings to the U.S. Team. They really deserve the victory in their group and England made the second place.

All the best to the Betty MacDonald Fans in South Africa and good luck for the teams.May the best team win!

It was a very good idea to send Betty MacDonald books and Betty MacDonald Interviews by Wolfgang Hampel as a special Betty MacDonald Fan Club wedding gift.

Ok Linde. I'm in the process of rereading Betty MacDonald's books to find an info about Betty MacDonald's favourite flower. I finished a very good essay about Betty and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.

You can read many interesting news for example Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's story about Sandra in the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.

Good luck for all teams in South Africa.

I saw the game France against South Africa an hour ago. It's too bad. Poor Martine, Henry, Laurent, Pierre and many other fans from France. I know you are crazy about the Fifa Worldcup and I can imagine very well how you feel.

We had our very special Betty MacDonald Event in Stockholm with Betty MacDonald fans from many countries. We are really an international Betty MacDonald Community.We had lots of fun to meet us again after the Betty MacDonald Meeting and Eurovision Song Contest in Oslo.

We saw the swedish royal wedding. Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling looked very happy and and so we were.Victoria is the eldest child of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, and belongs to the Royal House of Bernadotte. Born as a Princess of Sweden, she was designated Crown Princess in 1979 ahead of her younger brother.

The weather was all right and we even had sun. It was a day like in fairytale.

Betty MacDonald Fan Club sent a wedding present, books written by unique Betty MacDonald and Betty MacDonald Interviews by Wolfgang Hampel.

Denise and Brit are working on an article about the Betty MacDonald Event in Stockholm with very beautiful photos. Thank you so much! It's such a pleasure and joy to meet fascinating personalties like you!

Dear Sven, after reading Betty MacDonald's books you can answer the Betty MacDonald Contest Question. Believe me, you'll find it. I know you are a very clever guy. You really are.You are not in South Africa. We missed you in Stockholm. Where are you?

I know the Betty MacDonald party in South Africa is a great event but the royal Betty MacDonald Event in Stockholm was an experience, we'll never forget.
